There is more than one artist under this name: 1) Ictus was a melodic death metal/sludge/crust band from Galicia, Spain. They released a debut EP entitled 'Hambrientos de un Sol Distinto' in 2005, which was rawer and shorter than their later material but still hinted at and displayed some of their future characteristics. They also released two splits in 2006: One with Okban and another one with This Thing Called Dying, both featured lengthy songs closer to their final sound.
